The City of Naperville has settled a federal lawsuit that alleged its police department made a false DUI arrest in order to bolster its arrests numbers for the crime.
Assistant City Attorney Mark Scarloto said the city made a $10,000 offer of judgment in the case brought by David Briddle, a Glen Ellyn man who was pulled over in May 2010 and later arrested for DUI.
Briddle blew a 0.0 blood alcohol content reading at the police station, and was later released and never charged. The suit was filed against the city and the arresting officers.
